Don't do anything (including starting the engine) until you can figure out whether it's set up for full flow or bypass filtering. Read and understand the tech tip on how to tell the difference. Near the forward large oil port on the driver's side there is a round dowel pin pressed into the block. If it's flush with the outside of the block, you have a "bypass" oil system that routes most of the oil pump output to the engine without going through a filter. If the dowel is driven inward about 1/2" or a little more, the oil has to exit the block at the forward port, go through a filter, and re-enter the engine at the upper large port. This is the "full flow" option that was used with a large filter canister with 1/2" inside diameter flex lines. Don't do ANYTHING else until you determine which way the oil system is set up to work.
